100 Mile District General Hospital’s emergency department will be closed for most of Sunday, June 9.
Interior Health states that the department will be closed temporarily from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. The Health Authority says patients will be able to access care at Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake during this time.
All other non-emergency department inpatient care will continue as normal in 100 Mile District General.
Interior Health advises people in need of life-threatening emergency care to call 9-1-1 to be transported to the nearest available facility.
Potential patients are also advised to check the HealthLinkBC website or call the HealthLink BC phone line a 8-1-1 if they are unsure if a trip to an emergency department is warranted.
